Just replaced a PIX515E-R with a ASA 5510 K9BUN device and now having the
following trouble with Vista clients.

1. Very slow to finish "securing communication....". Sometimes it never
connect and the user has to retry.

2. DNS server not being passed to Vista client. We are having to update the
hosts file as a work around.

I'm not sure problem #2 was caused by switching from a PIX from an ASA, but
I'm pretty darn sure #1 was.

Do you have any ideas for me? I have ruled out authentication , which we
are using RADIUS, because if the user types the wrong password the
authentication fails immediately.

Thank you!
-Bob

Just to clarify, this is with Vista VPN clients running Cisco VPN client
v5.05.0290.

Have you installed MS Update KB952876 on the Vista clients as suggested
in the readme?
